Skythe 02-25-2006, 08:35 PM Like Fabro said, 32 psi all around. Inflate or deflate +/- 0-5 or so psi depending on your driving syle/habits/ preferences Blue87Sport 02-25-2006, 11:48 PM Does anyone have the correct tire pressure written on the sticker on the driver's door jamb? I went to check the correct pressure and mine is blank where the tire pressure should be. I had to use the owners manual.

The ride will be more bouncy, and also more "squirely" when going over different types of road surfaces, you'll have slightly more over-steer. Here's something from TireRack.com "Disadvantages of Overinflation An overinflated tire is stiff and unyielding and the size of its footprint in contact with the road is reduced. If a vehicle's tires are overinflated by 6 psi, they could be damaged more easily when encountering potholes or debris in the road, as well as experience irregular tread wear. Higher inflated tires cannot isolate road irregularities as well causing the vehicle to ride harsher and transmit more noise into its interior. However, higher inflation pressures reduce rolling resistance slightly and typically provide a slight improvement in steering response and cornering stability. This is why participants who use street tires in autocrosses, track events and road races run higher than normal inflation pressures." http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tiretech/techpage.jsp?techid=1 yiksing 02-26-2006, 07:11 AM Cold pressure 32 psi But if you do some spirited driving once in a while, you might wanna go up to 34 psi+. |
